  The seller terminal 200 is connected to the electronic coupon service providing server 300 through the network 400, and is connected to a specific website provided by the web server, for example, G market (http://www.gmarket.co.kr). Connect and register products to be sold by the seller.

  The seller terminal 200 connects to the web server of the electronic coupon service providing server 300, subscribes to a membership, and then downloads and installs a seller management program (for example, a G market GSM program) (not shown). ) Can register products to sell.

  Further, the seller terminal 200 can be registered as an electronic coupon usage destination regardless of registering a product or service. That is, the seller terminal 200 can establish a cooperative relationship with the provider of the electronic coupon service providing server 300 as a usage destination that can use the electronic coupon through a contract relationship in advance. Even when only registering as an electronic coupon usage destination, the seller ID is registered and related information is stored in the seller information DB 330. The seller terminal 200 of the seller who serves as the electronic coupon use destination also acquires the seller ID, so that the electronic coupon service providing server 300 can easily use the electronic coupon service using the function of the online shopping mall. To be able to. The seller ID can be set in advance by joining the electronic coupon service providing server 300, providing the seller information, and without using a separate subscription procedure. Etc. can also be used as the seller ID. In the latter case, since a complicated procedure is not required, there is an advantage that it can be realized more conveniently.

  The electronic coupon service providing server 300 operates an online shopping mall through the network 400 and relays merchandise sales between the seller and the purchaser. That is, various products sold by the seller are registered from the seller terminal 200 through the network 400, and the registered various products are provided to the buyer terminal 100 through a web server connected to the network 400, and the buyer needs Web pages necessary for shopping mall management are managed so that various products can be purchased.

  The electronic coupon service providing server 300 receives an electronic coupon purchase request from the buyer terminal 100 and sells the electronic coupon service providing server in the name of the electronic coupon service providing server in place of the electronic coupon seller (use destination) that has been contracted in advance. To do. When the electronic coupon holder uses the electronic coupon, the seller terminal 200 registered as the electronic coupon usage destination performs settlement with the electronic coupon service providing server 300 in order to process the electronic coupon. The electronic coupon service providing server 300 processes electronic coupon sales from the buyer terminal 100 and settlement using the electronic coupon using the seller terminal 200 and each coupon processing, and the electronic coupon sales and settlement are performed by using separate purchase numbers. It can be done easily.

  The electronic coupon service providing server 300 can process payment for a product or electronic coupon selected by the purchaser in the sale product list and can be delivered to the purchaser for the settled product. In addition, processing is performed so that it is possible to inquire about the process necessary for delivery, the location tracking of the product being delivered, the result, etc., such as notifying the seller of guidance for the settled product, and managing the necessary web page. In the case of an electronic coupon, since there is no delivery procedure, the delivery-related procedure is automatically processed as “being delivered”.

  The electronic coupon service providing server 300 enables an electronic coupon providing service to be provided by the same system as general sales and purchased products, and also provides an electronic coupon together without greatly changing the existing shopping mall system. To be able to.

  Data information for buying and selling electronic coupons of the buyer is transmitted through the buyer terminal 100. For example, suppose that five electronic coupons called “Gangnam Station Breakfast” are purchased through a web page provided by the electronic coupon service providing server 300. In this case, referring to Table 1 below, if the purchaser ID is “A”, the seller ID is “G market”, not the general seller ID, but the electronic coupon service providing server 300. It will be for sale at. The contract number of the contract that has been sold is “11111”, and the sold coupon code is also stored. In the case of a general shopping mall, the seller ID is the ID of the seller who actually sells, but the electronic coupon of the present invention is different in that it is unified into “G market”.

  If the purchase contract is concluded, delivery related information is also generated in the case of general merchandise purchase, but in the case of an electronic coupon, a delivery process is unnecessary. However, if the delivery information is used, even when an electronic coupon is used, there is an advantage that it can be processed by the same process as the conventional online shopping. In other words, when the purchase of the electronic coupon is completed, it is processed as “delivering”, and when the electronic coupon is used, the delivery information is set to “delivery completed” at the time of conclusion.

  Next, a process when an electronic coupon holder uses an electronic coupon will be described. When the person who possesses the electronic coupon uses it, it is processed as a virtual conclusion case. The virtual conclusion is not exposed on the shopping mall website and is generated for the convenience of processing.

  For example, if the holder of the electronic coupon uses 2 cards at “I” store, 1 at “B” store, and 2 at “C”, the processing is as shown in Table 2.

  Since the owner of the electronic coupon can be the same as or different from the buyer of the electronic coupon, and in many cases it is not possible to grasp the exact buyer, the buyer ID is “G Market” in this case. As a batch.

  A new fastening number is generated when the electronic coupon is used. Since the conclusion number is generated in the transaction conclusion unit of the commodity, referring to Table 2, the conclusion numbers “11112”, “11113”, and “11114” are generated for each of the three contract conclusions. . Each newly generated fastening number has an associated fastening number together. That is, in the matter generated when the coupon is used, the conclusion number, the coupon number, the seller ID, the purchaser ID, the amount of the conclusion, and the related conclusion number are described together. The related conclusion number includes the conclusion number at the time when the electronic coupon was purchased. Through this information, purchaser information, payment method information, etc. can be confirmed, and this conclusion is a virtual conclusion. Can be confirmed.

  When an electronic coupon is used, a new virtual conclusion is made, a conclusion number is generated, and if this conclusion number and the conclusion number at the time of electronic coupon purchase are linked with the relevant conclusion number, the person who purchased the used electronic coupon The information regarding the electronic coupon purchaser and the usage destination information can be confirmed.

  In addition, if an electronic coupon is used and a new virtual fastening number is generated, the date of use and the settlement rate (fee amount) by the user are stored together. This information indicates whether the validity period of the electronic coupon has passed This is checked, and settlement is performed at a settlement rate determined in advance between the electronic coupon usage destination and the provider of the electronic coupon service providing server 300. It goes without saying that the provider of the electronic coupon service providing server 300 can formulate a settlement rate (fee) different depending on each electronic coupon usage destination and perform settlement.

  The settlement rate can be determined in advance by a contract so that it differs depending on the seller, and even in the case of the same seller, it is possible to formulate the settlement rate differently for each category. For example, when “Starbucks” is registered as an electronic coupon usage destination, it is possible to formulate different settlement rates for different categories such as Starbucks drinks and sweets.

  Table 3 shows the process when the purchaser A uses 2 cards for “I”, 1 for “B”, does not use the remaining 2 cards, and the coupon valid period has passed.

  In the case of an electronic coupon whose validity period has elapsed, the contract is concluded between “G market” and “G market”, and a new conclusion number is generated when the electronic coupon is used. In this case, settlement is performed at the G market. In the matter generated when the coupon is used, a conclusion number, a coupon number, a seller ID, a purchaser ID, a conclusion amount, and a related conclusion number are described together.

  Table 4 shows the processing in the case where the coupon validity period has not elapsed since all five sheets purchased by the buyer A are not used.

  In the case of all electronic coupons whose validity period has elapsed, the contract is concluded between “G market” and “G market”, and a new conclusion number is generated when the electronic coupon is used. In this case, settlement is performed at the G market.

  The purchaser information DB 320 stores purchaser information registered by the purchaser who has joined the member, for example, purchaser ID, password, contact information, market basket information, product information under bid, product information for which a bid has been made, A DB for recording / managing product information, product information for payment products, delivery information, purchase decision availability information, etc., which is read by the electronic coupon service providing server 300 or updated to new purchaser information. be able to.

  The merchant information DB 330 stores merchant information (for example, merchant ID, password, contact information, etc.) and merchandise information (for example, merchandise name, price, merchandise brand, merchandise, etc.). ), Electronic coupon usage information, maker-specific settlement rate, etc., which can be read by the electronic coupon service providing server 300 or updated to new seller information. it can.
